I took this straigt from MSFT website.
{MERGEFIELD "MktVal" \# $####,0.00}

If I get a negative value, I get $- 123.45.

How do I change this so I get either -$123.45 or ($123.45)

Thanks!

Use { MERGEFIELD "MktVal" \# "$,0.00;($,0.00)" }

See "Formatting Word fields with switches" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's
website at
